Getting Around Spain | Transport Guide
Explore transport options in Spain for property owners. Flights, trains, buses, taxis, car rental, leasing and airport transfers.
Flights & Airports
Spain is exceptionally well connected by air, with major international airports including Madrid, Barcelona, Valencia, Alicante, Málaga, and Palma de Mallorca. These airports offer frequent direct flights to the UK, Northern Europe, Scandinavia, and the rest of the EU throughout the year.
For second-home owners and investors, this level of connectivity makes travelling to and from Spain fast, affordable, and convenient—often with multiple daily flight options.
Train Travel
Spain's rail network is among the most modern in Europe. The AVE high-speed train connects major cities quickly, comfortably, and efficiently, often rivaling flight times for domestic travel.
Regional and commuter trains serve coastal areas, towns, and cities, making train travel a practical option for residents and property owners who prefer not to drive.

Driving & Car Rental
Having a car provides the most flexibility for property owners, especially in coastal and rural areas. Spain has excellent roads, including toll motorways (autopistas) and free highways (autovías).
Options for Property Owners
- Car rental: Ideal for short visits, widely available at airports
- Long-term leasing: Cost-effective for extended stays
- Own vehicle: Makes sense for permanent residents
EU driving licences are valid in Spain. Non-EU residents may need an International Driving Permit initially.
Local Transport
Buses, taxis, and ride-sharing services provide everyday transport within towns and cities. Local buses are affordable and reliable, while taxis are widely available and reasonably priced.
